Artwork Description

This is for an upcoming Game of Thrones promo. It's three cards in one composition. That was a tricky one to put together, as there were specific requirements (one dragon on each shoulder and one to the side) and each of the three sections needed to look good on its own as well as making a good single piece. Quite an exercise in layout! Very fun, though.

I knew it! That "Chris" guy was playing me for a chump all along... or... WAS he...? Hmm... --- Well, anyway, thanks for the great comments, Marley, I had a lot of fun detailing the dragons (but quickly, quickly, as I only had a couple of evenings to render it).

Actually chris!! it was me,i forgot to loggin -,_* bwahahaha,now i have created confusion,HAHA i'm so evilll *puts pinky upto mouth*.Actually bloody nora this looks great patrick.I really like the ocean and the hint of spray about the place.not to mention the awesome detail for the dragons.Great work!!

Patrick, great problem solving skill! I can appreciate the difficulty in merging 3 compositions into one. I like the way you used 3 separate arches (formed by the dragons' wings) to structure the separations. Very clever!

That is such a cool image Patrick,almost cinematic.Great depth with waves meeting the horizon.Looked at the detailed version-wonderful job on her hair,really well done.And of coarse your great lighting just ties everything together-wicked stuff!

Heck, Christine, I'm blushing! I've found that mastering complicated compositions is just a matter of quickly sketching as many very different ideas as I can come up with; then looking for the one( that have the best flow and convergances and trying to accentuate those qualities. Lots of quick, small thumbnails, changing as much as possible in each one, that's the trick.
